So Close To What represents the insurmountable moments in life, where the road ahead at times can feel endless and the destination non-existent. It’s an introspective exploration of self-discovery, love, and nostalgia. The album and its songs  – including chart-toppers “Sports Car”, “It’s okay I’m ok” and “Revolving Door” – navigate the raw emotions of healing an old heart and the hesitations that come with falling in love again, the beautiful and sometimes harsh realities of what it means to be a woman and embracing a newfound confidence. Wrapped in irresistible pop production and unfiltered lyricism, So Close To What is written and produced with hitmakers Ryan Tedder, Grant Boutin, Amy Allen, Julia Michaels, and more. 

“It’s one thing to cash in on an artistic rubric popularized before you were born — many have tried, many have failed — but to do it convincingly is one of McRae’s bona fides, and throughout “So Close,” she largely clears the path she’s been setting closer to main pop girl.”

Variety

“So Close To What continues McRae’s upward trajectory…”
“…a pop album worth digging into.”

RollingStone

“So Close to What is her most self-assured—and best—record yet.”

VOGUE
